Abstract
Kienbock's disease is a rare form of avascular necrosis affecting the lunate bone. The underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Clinical examination is not specific, and diagnosis is typically made through imaging. Plain radiography, CT, and MRI can all aid in diagnosis, staging, and guiding treatment decisions.
